Over the past few weeks, you may have seen the Kindred tent out front on Sunday Mornings. They have been diligently promoting their bloc and seeking allies to join them at the Pride parade in Charlotte this weekend. If you missed the booth, but would still like to sign up, or if you’d like to show support by buying a Kindred t-shirt and stopping in this weekend to say hi, you can find out more information, sign up or purchase a shirt at the link in our profile!

I have been quietly working on my health and fitness for about a year and a half now (and super inconsistently for like 3 years before that 😉) But this year has been my most consistent year ever, like ever ever. Ha! In January of 2017 I learned I had Hashimoto’s. From there, I realized pretty quickly I would need to take matters into my own hands (not simply rely on medication alone) and get a solid system going with my nutrition and fitness which at the time was pretty nonexistent, even though back then I considered myself “healthy.” So that lead to lots of research on my end, trial and error, figuring out what foods worked with me and what didn’t and mentally getting to a place where I could rely on myself to be consistent on a daily which was the hardest part. But that’s what this year has been all about, just doing. I remember the middle of February sitting at my kitchen counter I wrote down exactly what I wanted from myself and thought about all the times I didn’t follow through and I literally just said, this is it, I am just going to focus on DOING each day. And each day I will focus on THAT day. I will focus on that particular workout. Even if I’m not perfect at it, even if some days I can only get through 15 minutes of a workout I am going to do it. And I have! There is so much power in consistency that I had never known until I got in the mindset of “just keep doing.” . . . . . . . . #fitjourney#fitspo#selflove#lifestyle#faith#liveinspired#eatwell#simplefoods#virtualfitness#healthylifestyle#fitnessjourney#bodypositivity#mindfulness
